OSD Menu Description
VIDEO – AV1, AV2/S, DVD, HDTV, and TV
input
BRIGHTNESS. Adjusts the amount of light in the darkest
portion of the picture. Increasing brightness makes the
overall picture lighter. Decreasing the brightness makes the
overall picture darker.
You may need to readjust brightness after the LCD TV
warms up.
CONTRAST. Adjusts the level of white between the lightest
and darkest portions of a image. If the contrast is too low,
the picture appears dark and lacks detail. If the contrast is
too high, the picture appears faded and lacks shadow and
depth.
COLOR. Adjusts the levels of white and color in the picture.
Highly saturated colors tend to be deep and strong while
unsaturated colors are weaker and lighter.
TINT. Adjusts the amount of white or black in a color. For
example, if the red looks pink, you can adjust the tint to
make the red more intense.
SHARPNESS. Adjusts the clarity of the picture. If the
sharpness is set incorrectly, the picture appears fuzzy or out
of focus.
COLOR TEMPERATURE. Adjusts the intensity of the
colors in the picture. A “cool” or low color temperature is
good for watching movies or for watching programs in a
darkened environment. A “warm” or high color temperature
is good for daylight viewing like sporting events.
NOISE REDUCTION (TV only). Eliminates video noise.
